Seriously, those two bands are probably my favorite bands of all time. Once I really sat down and listened to them, I knew there was something special about them. Absolutely incredible and emotional music.

 

[Thunder Chicken]

I've been in a Rammstein mood lately, though I am not what I would call a metal-head. Particularly some of their later stuff, less speed metal. I love the riff in Ich Tu Dir Weh but the lyrics are pushing my limited German vocabulary to somewhat disturbing places. Reise Reise is my favorite song this second, with Sonne and Ohne Dich close behind.

And, of course, the video to Keine Lust makes me smile:

 

[Saturn V]

The Beatles
Rush
Zeppelin
Deep Purple
The Exies
A Fall To Rise
Bowie
Heart
Stone Temple Pilots
Revolver
Satriani
Van Halen
Chickenfoot
Bad Company
and pretty much anything that isn't rap/hip hop or country.

 

[RichWall]

 

[Blacklight]

My list is:
Skinny Puppy (My absolute favorite, especially their stuff from the 80's)
Pink Floyd
Wolf Eyes
Merzbow
Einsturzende Neubouten
early Ministry stuff
Dead Can Dance
The Ramones
Godflesh
Coil
Throbbing Gristle
Cabare Voltair

I can keep typing this list forever. I can't go more than 5 minutes without listening to something.

 

[Izack]

I can't pick favourites, but lately I've been listening to a lot of Stevie Ray Vaughan.

 

[Wishbone]

Sorry Izack, I couldn't stand the weather. As for bands the Band of Brothers would do. The exhaustive list of my favourite musicians would be too boring and long, methinks.
